charset=UTF-8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit Previous logic used catchBlockEndLine = braceDepth - 1 with a < check, which failed when a nested block closed at the same depth as the catch itself (both would give braceDepth < catchBlockEndLine = false). The fix uses a nestedDepth counter: increment on each { inside catch, decrement on each }. Only exit the catch when closing a } while nestedDepth === 0 (no nested blocks currently open). The exit check happens BEFORE the decrement so we can distinguish catch-close from nested-block-close at equal depth. Also addresses rare same-line '} catch(e) {' case by storing catchDepth correctly before setting inCatchBlock. --- ai-slop-detector.ts | 8 ++++---- karpeslop-bin.js | 8 ++++---- 2 files changed, 8 insertions(+), 8 deletions(-) diff --git a/ai-slop-detector.ts b/ai-slop-detector.ts index 196837b..e642b28 100644 --- a/ai-slop-detector.ts +++ b/ai-slop-detector.ts @@ -917,7 +917,7 @@ class AISlopDetector { private isInTryCatchBlock(lines: string[], lineIndex: number): boolean { let braceDepth = 0;
